Using my RS1D, I consistently do see a noise peak around 0.5 Hz. I did a pretty good job creating an enclosure for my RS1D, so no trivial source of vibration.
Anybody has seen something like this ?
Here is a 24 hours plot that can be examine using the frequency tool:
Hello benoithschillings, welcome to our community!
I browsed a bit on DataView looking through your plots in recent days, but the only constant noise I could see was a signal between 5 and 10 Hz.
Could you please post a couple of screenshots where the 0.5 noise is evident? Thank you.
I observed this with my two RS1Ds as well and after further investigation, I wrote this:

thank you TideMan, super informative. I am about 15 miles away from the pacific coast, so this is a good explanation.
I just built a “vault” for my instrument which improves my S/N by nearly a factor of 2, but that frequency is still present.
I will pay attention to see a correlation to the waves at the coast.
